I wrote in a previous post that I thought that the new Asus Eee PC 90 was overpriced at P33,000.
Well, according to Yuga, the price may end up to be P24,995, which does sound more reasonable.
I found out from Yuga’s blog that the new Asus Eee PC 900 is priced at P33,900 at PC Corner. Overpriced? Maybe, especially since one can reportedly get a Compaq laptop at less than P30,000. Methinks that the big price difference is due to the Eee PC 900’s solid-state drive.
But even so, Asus’ original Eee PC was priced abroad at $399 and priced locally at P19,800, so if we take the same calculation, it should make the new Eee PC 900, at $549, at something like P27,250. And with the dollar hovering around the P41-42 level, it should even be much lower.
